This was one of my favorite games on the NES, and a fantastic Metroidvania long before the term was ever coined. I loved the shmup levels, the huge map (for the time) and the large variety of weapons which facilitated different playstyles. my only qualm with the NES game was that it had a password system to bring up your game progress and the randomly generated password was like 17 digits long, meaning if you didn't write it down perfectly all your progress was lost; this is something being added to GOG could fix with save states. It's sad that more people aren't aware of this game, and I know Metroidvania and shmup fans alike would agree The Guardian Legend belongs in the list of best Mteroidvanias.
I had this for NES. It had a great soundtrack and the top down flying stages were fun as were the overworld map areas. If this releases on GOG, I'll be more than happy to buy a copy.

Wolfenstein 3DWolfenstein 3D is a first-person shooter presented with rudimentary 3D graphics and a follow-up to the top-down infiltration game Castle Wolfenstein. The game is broken up into levels, each of which is a flat plane divided into areas and rooms by a grid-based pattern of walls and doors, all of equal height. Each level is themed after Nazi bunkers and buildings. To finish a level, the player must traverse through the area to reach an elevator. Levels are grouped together into named episodes, with the final level focusing on a boss fight with a particularly difficult enemy. While traversing the levels, the player must fight Nazi guards and soldiers, dogs, and other enemies while managing supplies of ammunition and health.
While later releases of the game included the Nocturnal Missions expansion, this initial release did not.Action Fantasy Historical Horror Science fiction
